Again, there is no age limit in arc just like there is no set amout of time you have to have stoped to post in life after.

The general purpose of arc was to have a place for people to discuss jobs, family, relationships, school and other issues that are not generally a concern for the teenagers.


These same issues are concerns for the 20 something so there is no reason they cannot post in arc as well.



The idea of lowering the age limit in arc
What do you suppsoe we lower it to?
25
21
18
No matter what age we put there someone will feel they are being left out.

30 was just a number placed on arc because it was a nice round number.
This is not set in stone.

I think the broadening of the Arc description will help me feel more comfortable posting there. People in Arc have never, ever made me feel unwelcome, but I just didn't feel right about "invading" their space.

Thanks, Deb.

I don't want to sound like a complainer....and that's about the only way I'd sound if I said anything. No worries. :-)

Oh, and Lonely Planet (travel page for backpackers) is mucho bigger than BUS and quite hard to handle but one thing which do make it a little easier is that one can choose in the profile which branches to be viewed. .
Click on the name of the forum on the main board and it makes it so you can see just that board (or maybe not that board, I can't remember).

Aah, now I see what you're talking about. Well, as far as I can see one can only choose to show or not show a whole bunch of forums at the same time. For instance "After hours" or "members only". I'd like to be able to select further, and to be able to add it in the profile so I don't have to do the same thing over and over every time I log on.

Don't mean to hijack this thread. If there's more to say we can start a thread maybe?
